  1. How about G-Chat by StormyWeather · · Score: 1, Redundant

    Do any of you think that google could with financial reason build a chat program using Jabber? It would be kind of cool to have a google chat program, and gmail client integrated into plugins in Mozilla. I just don't know if Google would want to be another blip on the chat program landscape. How would they make money? I don't know if I would want them scanning my chat for text adds. Although I have a gmail account and I guess I don't mind it for that, so why not :).
